Let's divide 329917 by 42
We want to figure out the number of times 329917 can be divided by 42.

Moving on to step 1:
42 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 32 / 42

Step 2:
42 goes into 32 0 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 32 to get 32.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 329 / 42

Step 3:
If we divide 329 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 294 from 329 to get 35.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 359 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 359 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 78.0
Subtract 336 from 359 to get 23.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 231 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 231 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 21.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 785.0
If we take 210 away from 231, we end up with 21.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 217 / 42

Step 6:
42 goes into 217 5 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 7855.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 210 from 217.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 70 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 7855.1
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 42 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
42 can be fit into 280 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7855.16
Subtract 252 from 280 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 280 6 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 7855.166
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 252 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 7855.166, and the remainder is 0.0028.
